018—White, Red

Seeing Lan Wangji stagger to his steps, [First Name] immediately showed up beside him and helped him up. With a frown, she looked around and then pointed at a corner, "Wangji-xiong, you should go over there and rest for now..." she slowly mumbled the suggestion. But he shook his head, "I am fine." 

He looked like he really didn't want to move much, so in the end, [First Name] sighed. As long as he doesn't move much the injury on his leg won't worsen or hurt anyways. "You're so stubborn..." she told him and he didn't say anything else. 

Earlier, while looking around, she caught sight of the two from Yunmeng. She had already noticed them when they and the disciples from the Jiang Sect had arrived but she was too busy paying attention to her own cousin that she put their presence at the back of her mind. Her fist tightened and she cleared her throat. Looking at them anxiously before turning his gaze to Lan Wangji beside her, "Wangji-xiong, I apologize but... Can I go over there for a few minutes...? I'll come back immediately." He already knew what she wanted to do.

But still, he looked over to the duo with a frown. He closed his eyes and gave a subtle nod, "Mn."

Her eyes immediately brightened with delight and replied with a nod. She turned her back and excitedly approached the two. Watching her robes flow so spiritedly behind her, Lan Wangji shook his head with a sigh.

Since the two were conversing with each other, [First Name] decided to call them out but she deliberately lowered her voice so as to not gather too much attention. "Wanyin, Wuxian." 

The two turned their attention towards her, eyes widening in surprise like they didn't expect her to approach them first. "[First Name]-jie!"

Wei Wuxian was delighted but Jiang Cheng didn't seem to be at all. His eyebrows furrowed as he turned his body, facing her. His eyes seem to be completely filled with complicated emotions as he slowly speaks up, "During last month's Wen conference, Zewu-jun said that you were badly injured, Lan Wangji was enough so why are you here too?" Hearing him bring that topic up, Wei Wuxian also turned serious, "A wound bad enough that would make you unable to leave the bed, [First Name]-jie, you're still injured, aren't you?"

[First Name] bitterly smiled at them, "You two, we haven't met for months and a year, is that seriously what you're going to say to me?" She raised both hands and patted their shoulders, "I'm fine, I'm fi-" Her sentence was cut short when she suddenly felt a stinging pain, as well as an additional weight behind her. The taste of something sweet and raw rose up to her throat, and a red liquid slipped in between her lips.

"[First Name]-jie! Are you alright?" a worried voice came from behind her.

She wiped the blood from her lips with her sleeves and looked at Nie Huaisang who unexpectedly bumped on her back, which resulted in the pain she had just received. She lowly laughed, "I was but not now..." her laugh didn't really last long as the pain had come back again. "My back... Hah..."

Watching her face distort from the pain, Nie Huaisang's eyes widened and he immediately backed away, fearing that he might cause her pain again. "Did I... Ah, I'm so sorry!" She simply kept her smile, raising her hand to pat the boy's head. "It's fine, it's fine." she stared at him for a good moment before letting out a sigh, "Huaisang, you're here too..." 

"Brother has to stay in the sect as the sect leader so I have to be the one to go... But [First Name]-jie, last month, Cloud Recesses was burned down, right? Are you alright?" he paused for a moment before he shook his head with closed eyes, "Brother heard that Zewu-jun is currently missing right now so he also sent out some people to look for him."
